A Hidden Artificial Lake

An artificial lake hidden in the underground passages of the Opéra Garnier in Paris? No, it's not an urban legend, but reality. So why is it there, and can you visit it? It's a mysterious lake that is said to have inspired Gaston Leroux to write his legendary novel"Le fantôme de l'Opéra"

The French Spring

A time of renewal in France, Spring is a season when the landscapes awaken with vibrant colours, and the air is perfumed with the scent of fresh blossoms. From the elegant streets of Paris, where cherry trees paint the parks in soft shades of pink, to the rolling vineyards of Provence, where the first buds signal the beginning of a new wine season, every corner of the country feels alive with possibility. The gardens of Loire Valley châteaux burst into bloom, the storybook villages of Alsace overflow with flowers, and the mild Mediterranean climate makes the French Riviera a dream before the summer crowds arrive. Whether you're wandering through historic cities, savoring the countryside in full bloom, or indulging in the fresh flavors of seasonal markets, spring in France is nothing short of enchanting
